INTRODUCTION

Traffic volume is defined as the number of vehicles crossing a section of road per
unit time at any selected period. Traffic volume studies are conducted to collect
data on the number of vehicles andior pedestrians that pass a point on a highway
facility during a specified time period. Traffic congestion usually occur at am peak
and pm peak where such congestion was due to the road user going to and
coming home from work, school, institution or any other places. At this point,
everyone flocked to get to their destinations and causing road congestion. Traffic
congestion does not only affect the situation on the roads but also affects the
emotions of road users while in traffic jam.

existing site traffic condition

 To observe the traffic flow trend and movement pattern

 To determine peak hour factor(if survey is done during the peak hour)
